OLD SAYBROOK SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL<br />
1111 Boston Post Road<br />
<strong>Old</strong> <strong>Saybrook</strong>, CT 06475<br />
Winter <strong>2012</strong><br />
Dear Parents and Students,<br />
The financial aid process that you will be completing this year most often awards money<br />
to families through federal grants and loans as well as individual colleges’ grants, loans<br />
and scholarships. However, this process does not give families information about<br />
private companies and organizations that offer scholarship money to students, nor does<br />
it give the students information on how to apply for those scholarships.<br />
The following pages summarize criteria regarding scholarships that were available in the<br />
2011-<strong>2012</strong> school year to <strong>Old</strong> <strong>Saybrook</strong> students. Most of the applications for these<br />
scholarships will be available in the Guidance Office, however many can be contacted<br />
through the sponsors addresses and websites listed. Offers tend to change annually<br />
and information will be updated as it is received.<br />
It is our recommendation that you pursue private scholarship money aggressively. In<br />
addition to the scholarships listed in this booklet, we advise that you and your family<br />
consult various publications, such as The <strong>Scholarship</strong> Book, Prentice Hall, Sports<br />
<strong>Scholarship</strong>s and College Athletic Programs, and Peterson's Guide or through the<br />
College Board at www.collegeboard.org, Financial Aid Information Page www.finaid.org,<br />
Fast WEB <strong>Scholarship</strong> Sources www.fastweb.com, Mapping Your Future<br />
www.mapping-your-future.org, Sallie Mae www.salliemae.com, and Teri www.teri.org.<br />
These publications are available in the Guidance Office, Acton <strong>Public</strong> Library and local<br />
bookstores. It is also important for you to investigate sources of scholarship money<br />
through organizations you belong to, the Internet and your place of employment.<br />
For your information, local <strong>Old</strong> <strong>Saybrook</strong> scholarships are announced to our students as<br />
they are received. Many of the applications for Connecticut and Nationwide<br />
scholarships are available on-line which is addressed in the scholarship descriptions.<br />
We hope this information proves helpful, and we encourage you to take a proactive role<br />
in researching and applying for these and other scholarships. We are available to<br />
answer any questions you may have.<br />
Sincerely,<br />
Maureen Healy<br />
School Counselor<br />
